What are tips for carcharodontosaurus? Tips and strategies for carcharodontosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If you bring 2 gallis or 2 trikes it's trust meter goes to 100
Always use a trap because if you don’t and I know this from experience that they will almost always agro on to you after feeding it the corpse
If you really need one of these perfect tamed, and accidentally get hit during taming, you can get off and KO it to feed it Archelon sushi to restore effectiveness. Might take a while for it to wake up however…. Debatably worthwhile
If it takes damage while u ride it it will lower tame efficiency
These thing are the giga cosion do not mess with them he will mess you up
First try to tame one. I hadn’t been able to find a good level one but if you need creatures to kill- you can give several babies or low levels.
I used Wyvern babies- didn’t even trap it- I did have to run after him but other than that he was an easy tame.
Make sure the area is clear of anything that can kill you. And ensure you sit your flier a bit back
The Charchar is a extremely fast and deadly creature.Its believed that a tamed charchar can even kill most of the largest creatures in Ark!I also tested and saw that no matter the stats of this beast.You can tame a Charchar at ANY level!Just be warned...if you approach it with a dead dino in hand to feed.It might bite back.
Since I saw people asking where to find these on Ragnarok you can find them in the Highlands
You don't need baby rex's, it's just extremely helpful. I used rex's but it's really up to preference
These share the spawns with Giga. If you have Gigas on the map kill them to refresh the spawns for a chance of one of these to pop up. Tried and tested on gen2.
Can be found any place on any map you would find a Giga on, it can not be found on SE, AB, or Gen 1.(which is stupid as the picture we got was in Genesis bog biome) The best place to find it is Rag Highland. By the way it cannot be brought into boss fights. up if you found helpful!
Took 3 trikes lvl 100+ to get the bar to full up on a level 50. Wouldn't eat them unless I dropped the body outside the trap then left render distance. Came back and he ate while I was gone. Try to be in an area with easy access to dinos to kill and bring back. After circle turned green was able to ride it to finish the tame. Had a 10 min timer. After killing mainly stegos got thrown off and it was tamed. Need a saddle to ride again. Was during event with 8.75 rates
Hey, this is the person who experimented taming these multiple times and wrote that long ass method on how to tame it. I’m back with a similar method on how to tame, but only applies if you have a buddy or two. Build your square trap made out of metal behemoth gateways and attach the needed gates (dinosaur gateways might work too, just make sure they’re made of metal). Make sure you have a space to enter and exit. Build large bear traps at the end of the trap (farthest away from the side you want the carcha to enter). You’re gonna use your friends as bait, so you might have to play rock paper scissors to decide who takes it for the team. Put your bro or any number of people behind the bear traps and have them shoot the carcha to lure it into the trap. One or both of them may die, but it’s a sacrifice you’re willing to make. When the carcha is attacking your homies and/or stuck in the trap, SHUT THAT DAMN DOOR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Kill some animals (gallimimuses, trikes, and wooly rhinos are good examples) and stick them into the trap. Get out of render distance so the carcha will eat it. After eating, the carcha will be a little ornery. This is normal. Get an argy or any carrying animal and scatter a bunch of animals around the area. Get your argy or your carrier tame out of harm’s way, far from the trap as possible. Keep feeding the carcha carcasses until the trust meter goes green, and when it is, ride the carcha and kill many animals as you can.
If you have tamed the carcha, congratulations, you’ve done it!!
If the time that the dinosaur is chill is running out and you’re not far into taming progress, ride the carcha back into the trap and repeat the process.
I hope this tip and my previous one has helped people.
5.000.000.000th One here :D, idk what to say other than I’m exited to welcome this Dino to the ark, I’ve heard it has yuty abilitys, and has a rage, as in increased dmg every bite!! Definitely going to be an amazing new Dino to toy around with! Stinks cuz it’s coming at the end of the year… BUT WHO CARES :D
I really hope it’s on scorched earth so we can have the scorched earth giga
You have to feed it a creature as soon as you feed him the first time! So stock up on bodies and just have it close to you (not to the carchar or it eat them to and won’t give any more friendliness)
When taming do not go in water! I tried to swim across a lake and it was soooo slow in the water!
I saw one of these for the first time on my 225 Spino me being the goober thinking that it would be an easy kill 1v1ed this thing…. Mind you this thing was way lower less than 100 than my spino and my spino was all malee and health…. I died… avoid these at all costs even if you think that you have the tankiest Dino.
All you need is a baby rex, unclaim it and kill it, then aproach carca and when it starts sniffing drop it.
Bring few baby rexes just in case.
